It's all about self respect

Food for Thought

There is a policy at work, “No facial rings or clips shall be worn during working hours.” I have a young co-worker who defies this rule as often as she can. When our supervisor leaves for the day, the jewelry goes back on her cheek.

There is also a lot of drama in her life, boys come and go and she can’t figure out why the relationships don’t last. The next time I noticed the ornament back on her face, I used this as an example to explain her unhappy love life. I stated, “You are being disrespectful to your employer by defying a company policy, therefore, you are also being disrespectful to yourself. The boys take advantage of you because they sense this of you.”

I gave her something to think about as she looked at me with no answer.

Life is a wonderful classroom. I am grateful to have the opportunity to share some of my knowledge with others. I hope it brought the message home for my co-worker.

Thanks for sharing your time with me.
